Dear Investor
It is with great pleasure that I present this
Prospectus to you on behalf of the Directors of
AXG Mining Limited (AXG). AXG is aiming to be
a successful precious metals explorer and producer.
AXGs parent company, WRF Securities Limited
(WRF) is focused on Funds Management and in 2002
WRF assigned its minerals assets in Western Australia
and the Philippines to AXG. These assets form
the basis of this Prospectus.
AXGs main asset is its Murchison Project
in Western Australia which still contains global
gold resources of over 500,000 ounces remaining
after 1996-2001 mining produced 396,900 ounces
from the Western Queen and Gilbeys deposits.
The majority of the Murchison Project tenements
cover about 70% of the Warda Warra Greenstone
Belt which has been largely unexplored away from
the Western Queen and Western Queen South deposits,
although it is similar in size and setting to
belts hosting world class deposits in Western
Australia such as Plutonic and Big Bell. AXG will
be exploring to find another such deposit in this
belt.
AXGs initial focus after listing will be
on testing new targets that have been identified
by Geoinformatics Exploration Australia Pty Ltd
from an extensive review and interpretation of
low level geophysical data in conjunction with
geochemical and drilling results. A priority target
is the up dip extension of a zone located east
of the Western Queen South resource where a drill
hole intersected 21m at 1.9g/t gold, including
2m at 5.2g/t.
The Murchison Project comprises AXGs 100%
owned tenements and tenements which are in joint
venture with Equigold NL with AXG holding 49.9%.
The joint venture tenements contain the known
gold resources. Joint venture terms have been
varied to allow AXG to earn up to an 80% interest
in the Western Queen and the Western Queen South
tenements where there are already over 130,000
ounces identified.
The West Musgrave Project in Western Australia
is a joint venture with WMC Resources Ltd (WMCR)
which presents several possibilities for PGE and
nickel mineralisation. WMCR has already spent
over $1.6 million of the $5.0 million it may spend
to earn a 75% interest and before AXG is required
to contribute.
In the Philippines, AXG holds a 28% indirect
interest in the Boston Project which comprises
three exploration tenement applications for gold,
silver and copper. This project is in the early
stages of application and exploration. It represents
a longer term view for AXG to grow through its
exploration projects.
AXGs Board has three Directors with extensive
experience in the resources industry. Mr Robert
Nichevich and Mr Charles Mostert and I will oversee
the direction of AXG along with Mr Harjinder Kehal
who has been engaged as AXGs Chief Operating
Officer. Mr Kehal is a respected and experienced
geologist with over 18 years in the mining industry.
WRF has been issued 14,750,000 Existing Shares
and 13,000,000 Existing Shares have been issued
to other investors for the provision of seed capital.
Investors and WRF shareholders are invited to
subscribe for a further 12,500,000 Shares at 20
cents each to raise $2,500,000 to fund two years
exploration of AXGs resource projects and
to provide for administration and working capital.
On behalf of my fellow Directors, I invite you
to become a shareholder of AXG and welcome your
participation in AXGs exciting exploration
projects.
Peter Jermyn
Chairman
March 2004
